[PATCH v2] io_uring/rw: fix missing ERESTARTSYS conversion in read paths

Yitang Yang <[email protected]> Wed, 22 Jul 2026 20:45:51 +0800
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.io-uring,org.kernel.vger.stable
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Both read and write may receive internal restart error codes from
the filesystem layer and should be converted to -EINTR. However,
when multishot read support was added, the error code normalization
was lost for both io_read() and io_read_mshot().

Extract the conversion into io_fixup_restart_res() and apply it
in all three locations: io_rw_done(), io_read(), and io_read_mshot().

Fixes: a08d195b586a ("io_uring/rw: split io_read() into a helper")
